Yunmeng Immortal Clan

After completely eliminating the hidden danger within his second uncle's body, Song Daoxuan took out a small section of withered ink bamboo branch that he had exchanged with the Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Heroes Pavilion from the jade box in his storage bag.

Then he planted it in his own cave. Song Daoxuan's cave was very spacious and had abundant spiritual energy, which was enough to support the cultivation of the Ink Spirit Bamboo.

He first planted the Ink Spirit Bamboo in a small pit.

Song Daoxuan used his divine sense to retrieve the Qi-gathering gourd and condensed a drop of Purple Cloud Dew from it. As soon as the drop of Purple Cloud Dew was applied, the withered and yellowed branches of the Ink Spirit Bamboo were transformed into a white jade color.

The white jade color was the true appearance of the hundred-year-old Ink Spirit Bamboo. However, Song Daoxuan did not stop consuming the Purple Cloud Dew, and a total of ten drops of Purple Cloud Dew were consumed.

The black bamboo in front of us has not only grown taller, but it has also grown lush and verdant.

There's no problem in forging the white ink bamboo in front of us into two white ink swords.

However, Song Daoxuan was somewhat greedy. His goal was not just a mere hundred-year-old Ink Spirit Bamboo, but to cultivate the so-called ten-thousand-year-old Ink Spirit Bamboo.

"Very good, the Purple Dew can indeed revive the Ink Spirit Bamboo. However, if the Purple Dew truly has miraculous effects, I might even aspire to cultivate the legendary ten-thousand-year-old Ink Spirit Bamboo!"

Thinking of this, Song Daoxuan continued to consume the Purple Dew that had accumulated in the gourd over the years without restraint.

Then he realized that if he continued, even if he used up all the Purple Dew he had accumulated over the years, he probably still wouldn't be able to increase the age of the white Ink Spirit Bamboo in front of him.

He thought about it and realized that fifty to a hundred years was generally referred to as a second-tier spiritual plant in the cultivation world.

Plants that are 100 to 500 years old are called third-tier spiritual plants. Legendary plants like the Ink Spirit Bamboo require at least 500 years to transform from white Ink Spirit Bamboo into black Ink Spirit Bamboo.

Although he could no longer transform the white Ink Bamboo into black Ink Bamboo, Song Daoxuan discovered that many Ink Bamboo shoots had sprouted around the white Ink Bamboo.

Song Daoxuan did not waste the remaining Purple Dew on that white Ink Bamboo.

Instead, the energy is consumed in the bamboo shoots, and these bamboo shoots of the Ink Spirit Bamboo continue to transform, turning into fresh white Ink Spirit Bamboo.

So, next to the most robust white ink bamboo in the center, several slightly shorter white ink bamboos appeared.

After cultivating these Ink Spirit Bamboos, Song Daoxuan only had a few drops of Purple Dew left in his storage bag.

As for the white ink bamboo at the very center, he did not intend to use it, as it was a crucial part of his grand plan to cultivate ink bamboo.

He took out the Azure Lotus Magic Sword from his storage bag. The Azure Lotus Magic Sword was a top-tier magic weapon. With a flick of his sleeve, Song Daoxuan swung the sword and unleashed an arc of light.

To Song Daoxuan's surprise, the Ink Spirit Bamboo in front of him remained completely still.

"This Ink Spirit Bamboo truly lives up to its legendary status; I never imagined it would be so incredibly hard..."

Song Daoxuan tried the same action dozens of times before he finally broke one of the Ink Spirit Bamboo stalks in two. These two pieces of Ink Spirit Bamboo should be enough to forge two white Ink Spirit Bamboo flying swords.

Song Daoxuan went to Yunmeng Market again and found the Su Shu Forging Shop.

Coincidentally, both Yun Chengnian and Yun Sushu, grandfather and granddaughter, were at the forging shop this time.

After many years, Yun Sushu has grown into a curvaceous young woman.

When Yun Sushu saw Song Daoxuan, she showed a look of joy.

Although many years have passed, he was, after all, a cultivator. Although they had only met once, Song Daoxuan was still etched in her mind.

Yun Sushu's current cultivation level is the fifth level of Qi Refining, and her talent in cultivation is not particularly outstanding.

Recently, it seems that Yun Chengnian is nearing the end of his life and is looking forward to enjoying his retirement.

Fortunately, Yun Sushu has taken over the mantle of her grandfather Yun Chengnian and even became a second-tier weapon refiner with her talent.

Over the years, Yun Sushu has exerted all her strength and barely managed to refine a low-grade spiritual weapon, thus stepping into the realm of a second-tier weapon refiner.

Yun Sushu and Song Daoxuan chatted for a while, and she learned that the person in front of her was surnamed Song.

"I see you're a little older than Su Shu, so how about I call you Brother Song? It feels more intimate that way!" Yun Su Shu said with a smile, her shapely figure radiating warmth.

Song Daoxuan nodded, indicating that he could. He did not reveal his full name to Yun Sushu, but only his surname.

"I remember your shop accepts custom-made magical artifacts, right? I see that Master Yun has stopped crafting artifacts. I have an item here that needs to be crafted into a flying sword. I wonder if your shop can still craft it?" Song Daoxuan asked directly.

"Brother Song, what kind of magical artifact do you need to forge? To be honest, I, Yun Sushu, am now a very qualified second-tier artifact refiner. Even if my grandfather no longer refines artifacts, I believe that my artifact refining skills are in no way inferior to my grandfather's!" Yun Sushu patted her full chest and said.

Seeing Yun Sushu's confident expression, Song Daoxuan found it somewhat amusing.

"I have some refining materials here, but it's not convenient to look at them here. Please come over and we'll talk!" Song Daoxuan said calmly.

The area outside the shop was crowded with people and eyes. If a legendary item like the Ink Spirit Bamboo were exposed so openly, even if one was a Foundation Establishment cultivator, there would definitely be some troubles.

Yun Sushu looked puzzled, and she was curious about what kind of refining materials the other party could provide.

However, they still led Song Daoxuan to a secluded spot among the weapon-refining shops.

"Brother Song, do you have any refining materials that you could show Su Shu?" Yun Su Shu said, pursing her red lips.

After hesitating for a long time, Song Daoxuan finally took out the two sections of Ink Spirit Bamboo from his storage bag.

Upon seeing the two sections of ink bamboo before her, the young woman was utterly astonished.

Yun Sushu couldn't help but exclaim in surprise:

"This is the legendary Ink Spirit Bamboo, a top-tier refining material in the eyes of us weapon refiners. Ink Spirit Bamboo doesn't need any other materials added; after refining and inscribing spirit patterns, it can even be crafted directly into a weapon. These two sections are enough to forge two Ink Spirit Bamboo flying swords!"

"If you could let me refine this, I'd be willing to halve the customization fee!" Yun Sushu was a weapon refiner, and this was the first time she had ever seen such a legendary natural weapon refining material.

Although the steps to forge a flying sword from Ink Bamboo are not as complicated as those forging a low-grade spiritual weapon, they are still more difficult than forging a top-grade magical weapon.

Successfully refining the Ink Spirit Bamboo into a flying sword would be a great trial opportunity for Yun Sushu, and she naturally didn't want to give it up.
